The iOS device, Apple Watch, or Mac is online—awake and in range of a Wi-Fi network.

AirPods are out of their case and near one of your iOS devices. Any of your iOS devices can find the AirPods, but they must be paired with at least one of your iOS devices.

If you have Family Sharing set up, you can also locate a family member’s device. For more information, see the Apple Support article Family Sharing and location.

Click All Devices. In the list, the dot next to the device indicates its status:

A green dot means it’s online. If the device can be located, you also see the time it was last located.

A gray dot means it’s offline (turned off or not connected to a network). AirPods are offline if they’re out of battery life, in their case, or not near one of your iOS devices. If the device was recently online, you see the time it was last located. If the device has been offline for over 24 hours, you see “Offline.”

Select the device you want to locate.

If the device is online and can be located, its approximate location is shown on the map.

Note: If your AirPods are separated from each other, you see only one location at a time on the map. First, find the one shown on the map and put it in the case. Then refresh the map and find the other one.

If Find My iPhone can’t locate the device, the last known location is displayed for up to 24 hours. Select “Notify me when found” to get an email when it comes online.

Do any of the following:

Update the location: Click the green dot on the map, then click Refresh .

Move the map: Drag it.

Zoom in: Click the Zoom In button .

Zoom out: Click the Zoom Out button .

Change the map view: Click the current view, such as Standard, in the bottom-right corner, then click the view you want.

You can also use a different iOS device to locate your missing device. For more information, open Find My iPhone, tap Help, then go to “Locate your device.”
